Install Quick Recap

Pick your agent. Every command is ready to paste.

$npx skills add BuilderIO/skills --skill quick-recap

The open skills CLI detects your agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and 70+ more) and installs to the right folder. Add -g to install globally.

01

Install it

Run the command above, or upload the folder in Claude.

02

Ask naturally

Describe the task. Your agent loads quick-recap when the request matches its description.

03

Name it if needed

If it does not trigger, say “use the quick-recap skill”. In Codex, type $quick-recap.

Quick Recap

Make completion state obvious at the end of every response.

Status Block

Every response that completes a unit of work must end with:

🟢 Actual concise status sentence

Rules:

  • Keep the status line under 100 characters.
  • Use 🟢 when the requested work is finished.
  • Use 🟡 when non-routine follow-up remains; name the pending item.
  • Use 🔴 only when blocked on user input.
  • Put the status line at the very end of the response.
  • Do not add ---, spacer lines, or any content after the status line.

Installer Behavior

This convention is only automatic when it is present in project or user instructions. When installing this skill, prefer adding the managed AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md block unless the user opts out.

If you are following the convention manually, choose the status from the user's perspective: finished, pending a specific non-routine step, or blocked.

Examples

Finished work:

🟢 Updated quick recap docs with output examples

Non-routine follow-up remains:

🟡 Code updated, set PROVIDER_WEBHOOK_SECRET before testing webhooks

Blocked on user input:

🔴 Need the production API key to continue

  • • It is part of a pack with 26 skills. Install only the ones you need with --skill to keep triggers precise.
